I am interested in politics and world affairs. I am left leaning. I love nature, writing poetry and songs. I enjoy reading books and have piles of them I have read and piles to read. John Boyne my favourite author but love reading all sorts of books.

Just a little thing to think about - we are all human beings - maybe that is what joins us together! As human beings there are good and bad people in all religions, races and cultures so why is it so difficult for people to stop judging people on what they look like? Judge people on who they are!

The disgusting nature of the hate spreading on X and as you say the urge by so many to make this tragedy fit their narrative is in stark contrast with the amazing actions of human beings on that train that saved people's lives. We need to not let our view of people be skewed by the cesspit that is X

To think that the last Govt were looking to take Guards off trains and only have a driver! The ludicrousness of that is evident after the horrific train attack over weekend. There should be multiple guards not none! We need guards on trains to protect people and be available to help.

I cannot watch Chris Philp (aka Stephen Miller). The aggressive, anti-immigrant spiel he always trots out is just Reform and his inability to criticise people in Reform or is own party for blatant racism is sickening. What has happened to the Tories? The race to the bottom of the barrel is on.

There is far more goodness in human beings than bad and the yin + yang of life have been fully on display after horrific train attack. Social media has far more negative of humanity than good which is why our views are often skewed. It is why Social media is so damaging to all especially the young.

He is also totally delusional if he thinks that everybody was living like hobbits at any time in our past! Totally ignorant of Britain so should stay in his lane + stop interfering in British politics. Maybe he should read some Dickens to know the ugliness of human beings has always been in Britain!

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

The yin and yang of life have been all over the news in the last 24 hours. The awfulness of the attacks on the train have been offset by the heroism of the LNER staff + the bravery of other passengers who helped others on the train. We are more good than bad as humans - something to always remember.

#trevorphillips After events last night responsible journalism would have brought in Lib Dems and Greens onto the programmes this morning but instead we had Reform and Tories on #bbclaurak. Reform and Tories have shown blatant racism recently and blame EVERYTHING on immigration stirring up hatred.

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

#bbclaurak We have had Reform now Tories on and the Govt. This seems to be a very right leaning programme this morning and given both Tories and Reform blame EVERYTHING on immigration it seems to be irresponsible. Where were Lib Dems or Greens to give their viewpoint on last night's events??

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

I don't think Starmer will lead Labour into the next election but it would be beneficial to keep in post for another year to ensure we don't have election before 2029 (keep Reform out). Mcsweeney needs to go as well. Andy Burnham is best choice but needs to get back into parliament.

#bbclaurak #trevorphillips Just changed channels as Reform are on #bbclaurak AGAIN! They incite hatred and violence in this country and will no doubt blame immigration for the horrendous attack last night despite nobody knowing what the cause is yet! Reform only have 5 MPs - why isn't Lib Dem on?

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

Reform on #bbclaurak AGAIN! So changing channels because Reform will make the horrendous attacks last night onto immigration. They cannot help themselves! Reform only have 5 MPs but they are on all the channels far more than Green party and Lib Dems who have far more MPs.

#trevorphillips #bbclaurak Michael Gove has no credibility to criticise the current Govt about economy when he was fully involved in the last Govts catastrophic treatment of this country that led our NHS to be in crisis alongside ALL our public services!

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

#trevorphillips I dislike Trevor Phillips immensely because he is an aggressive interviewer who doesn't listen to what people say but just has his own agenda to get what he wants from an interview. That isn't good for people listening and I don't remember him doing it to Tories or Nigel Farage.....

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 1d

#trevorphillips #bbclaurak The ridiculousness of still going on about Rachel Reeves having made a mistake on her rental property (not one that gave her any more money BTW) is the right wing media's obsession with women in power. First Angela, then Jess now Rachel. Misogyny with full headlights on it

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 2d

The right wing media + newspapers went for Angela Rayner and they succeeded in getting her to resign, then they went for Jess Phillips and now they are going to Rachel Reeves.What is the common denominator - they are all powerful women and most of right wing press + media are white, misogynistic men

You know he was bullied at school and you know he is now taking it out on the whole of America instead of dealing with his own issues. He is a small man in stature, intelligence and strength. He is hiding behind power of Trump. Horrible little man.

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 3d

Now the King in the UK has dealt with 'Prince' Andrew it is time for America to deal with Trump who had a much closer relationship with Epstein than Andrew Windsor.Time to release the Epstein files in America so that anybody involved with Epstein (Trump in particular) is brought into the headlights.

OMG have you got nothing else to talk about!! Look into Nigel Farage affairs including the buying of property in Clacton! Farage won't release his tax returns which says a lot. But you keep on and on about an oversight because it is a woman in power which Nick Ferrari hates.

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 4d

Now the storm in a tea cup of Rachel Reeves rental error started by the right wing newspapers and perpetuated by our right wing media has been proved to be ridiculous. Can the same newspapers and media look into the actual issues in Nigel Farage's earnings, tax and spending please? #UKpolitics

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 4d

@skynewsrss.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Why are you covering Rachel Reeves making a mistake on her rental property (which isn't about not paying money but an honest mistake) but you fail to cover all the seedy money comings and goings of Nigel Farage? Is it anti women or is it anti Labour?

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 4d

We are off again trying to take down a woman from a powerful position over something that was a mistake. Our newspapers + media don't seem to have anything better to do than go after women who make honest mistakes on their housing. This one isn't even about money! LOOK INTO NIGEL FARAGE! #UKpolitics

Poet Sue @poetsue.bsky.social · 4d

Do you know what really gets me is the joyous toothy laugh from Nick Ferrari when he is talking about the downfall of particularly women in power..... has he seen all that Donald Trump has done and is still president?And he wants to bring somebody down for handing over their house to renting agency?

Hopefully the tide is turning in Europe and it comes our way as well 🙏

#celebritytraitors I think Celia is definitely at risk - she has been not only a joy to watch but also really good at seeking out traitors. I am loving this series so much.
